Answer 1

At this point stem cell research is still very much in the testing stage when it comes to curing diabetics. I would strongly advise you away from this option for right now. There are some child friendly ways to administer insulin, and any pediatric endocrinologist would be more then happy to help you find ways to make sure your son can get used to being diabetic.

But like I said before - the cure for diabetes is not here yet. If the people behind these sites are claiming a cure, they're lying. What they're more then likely looking for are test subjects. Which is dangerous and best left to diabetic patients who can make that choice for themselves - not a 6 year old boy.

Answer 3

I'm a 45 year old woman and was recently diagnosed as being a borderline diabetic. My doctor prescribed some medication, but before filling it I decided to do some research on the internet which led me to the methods. After reading this ebook and applying the methods, my scepticism turned to 100% belief. I noticed that my energy levels increased significantly and I felt more rested in the morning, my symptoms started going away.

I am very happy to tell you that I have been feeling better than I have felt in years and my doctor informed me that he will be taking me off my prescriptions if I keep this up.

I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

Answer 4

I think you mean "Can Diabetes be Cured?", because there are many ways to treat the disease, but I've never heard of anyone being CURED as far as diabetes goes.

As for the links...I'm not too sure. Yes, developments are coming from stem cell research, but I would think that if someone had the cure for diabetes they would step forward for a Nobel Prize and all of the money associated woth such a big discovery. You have to remember that there a lot of scam artists out there, so don't be too eager and trusting with your money!

Just my two cents.

Answer 5

I don't know where you are living, but be careful, please - it is your son's life!

Stem cell research is very promising, and excellent research is being done (there is a lot of it done here in Canada).

However, there is no cure yet - just hope. I am not sure if they are doing human trials yet - this may be what they are talking about.

Try going to a website like Harvard University or University of Toronto. In the meantime, I think there are easier ways of administering insulin, even a pump, but it is still the only option.

Don't let anyone try to sell you anything, either!

Answer 6

A young girl my daughter knows was diagnosed with diabetes as a child, insulin dependent, like me. She required a kidney transplant 8 months ago, the did a pancrease transplant at the same time. She hasn't taken insulin since. It's not stem cells, but it seems to have worked for now.

Answer 7

I think U should ask Dr as they are more specialist in this....

Type 1 diabetes (formerly known as insulin-dependent diabetes, childhood diabetes, or juvenile-onset diabetes) is most commonly diagnosed in children and adolescents, but can occur in adults, as well. It is characterized by β-cell destruction, which usually leads to an absolute deficiency of insulin. Most cases of type 1 diabetes are immune-mediated characterized by autoimmune destruction of the body's β-cells in the Islets of Langerhans of the pancreas, destroying them or damaging them sufficiently to reduce insulin production. However, some forms of type 1 diabetes are characterized by loss of the body's β-cells without evidence of autoimmunity. Lifestyle does not affect the probability of getting Type 1 diabetes.

Currently, type 1 diabetes is treated with insulin injections, lifestyle adjustments (diet and exercise), and careful monitoring of blood glucose levels using blood testing monitors. Insulin delivery is also possible via an insulin pump, which allows infusion of insulin 24 hours a day at preset levels, and the ability to program a push dose (a bolus) of insulin as needed at meal times. This at the expense of an indwelling subcutaneous catheter. Type 1 treatment must be continued indefinitely. Treatment does not impair normal activities, if carried out with care and discipline. The average glucose level for the type 1 patient should be as close to normal (80-120 mg/dl) as possible. Some physicians suggest up to 140-150 mg/dl for those having trouble with lower values. Values above 200 mg/dl are often accompanied by discomfort and frequent urination leading to dehydration. Values above 300 mg/dl will usually require immediate treatment and may lead to ketoacidosis.

Answer 10

They are doing some good stuff with stem cells, but your six year old son won't be eligible for that kind of treatment for a while. Its still in the reaserch stages.
